What do I do to find out if my deceased parents had a will?

Start searching many and all places your parents may have stored their documents, and check with the lawyer who drafted the will if you know. I know of people storing their will in the garage or wood shed or attic or basement or bank or with a trusted friend or family member.

How can siblings in poverty avoid inheriting taxes & fees from middle class parents?

default-avatar
Answered by attorney James P Frederick (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Frederick & Frederick Attorneys at Law
Under your limited facts, it is highly unlikely there would be any significant tax burden, when the estate is settled. There will be some income tax on the IRA, but that can be withheld at the time of distribution. There are also ways of treating the IRA that will minimize taxes, when the time comes. If you are receiving needs based government assistance, there is a chance that you would no longer be eligible, if you receive a significant inheritance. This would not necessarily be a problem, however, as you would no longer need the government assistance.

The house is in the estate until it is transferred to you out of it. It is possible it will have to be sold to pay his debts.
